With a possibility of a series sweep hunting them, the Astros reacted when it counted. On Sunday night, they came alive to top the Phillies 4-3 to close the three-game series at Minute Maid Park. José Urquidy, Jake Meyers, and Kyle Tucker were key factors to get the W.
Pitching one day away from his 28th birthday, Urquidy was good enough to take his second win of the season and even his record to 2-2. He pitched 5 1/3 innings before suffering an injury (shoulder soreness). The Phillies couldn’t do much damage against the right-hander as he allowed three hits and two earned runs (two solo shots), with a walk and two strikeouts.
